Question: i want ti know what is the username and password for the device
Answer: Thank you for your inquiry.

There is no default user name and password for this device. Before the OSD main screen displays, a login screen appears requiring a password. If the password has not been set, simply press enter. For more information, see the manual posted above.

Question: We need a 20 foot power cord, a 20 foot PS/2 and a 20 foot USB KVM cables. Are these available?
Answer: Unfortunately, cables of that length are not available. USB and PS/2 lose functionality after about 15'. However, there may be some extension products that would fit the bill. Please give us a call at 1-877-586-6654 to discuss your project further.

Question: what is the good feature of this switch ??
Answer: This is a versatile rack mount drawer with the common 17” display and the ability to connect both PS2 and USB targets.

Question: my ac power is going down and after start up cl5708m is asking username and password. Can you help me for username and password default . Thank you
Answer: Thank you for your inquiry. Because user environments are so very different, detailed product support is beyond the scope of this FAQ. Having said that, here are some ideas.

According to the manual, if password functionality has not been set up, there is no default password and the user can just hit enter on the log-in screen. See page 31 of the manual linked from the product page: http://www.42u.com/pdf/cl5708-cl5716...page=31

If on the other hand a password has been set and since forgotten, a password reset will need to be performed. This procedure requires powering down the system, opening the case and shorting a jumper. Full details for the procedure can be found in the manual on page 74 under the heading 'Clear Login Information': http://www.42u.com/pdf/cl5708-cl5716...page=74.
